Defeat of the Spanish Armada
We are in 1583, Britain's Queen Elizabeth I was causing serious headaches for constantly harassing the Spanish crown colony caribbean backed privateers aided by the queen. The Spanish King Philip II were added to him the concerns, the rebels of Flanders had to be defeated quickly but the war was stretching and Spanish resources were reduced.
As a single solution to all his problems the Spanish king had already some time thinking about invading Britain to overthrow Elizabeth I, while rebels surround the Netherlands joining the fleet at an army led by Alexander Farnese that he would head there by land. After consulting Alvaro de Bazan, reputed sailor, it seemed that the idea could be implemented. Preparing a large fleet that would have some 130 warships that began in 1584.
Shortly before starting the expedition Alvaro de Bazan dies, which some experts would be part of what would drastically change the fate of the fleet. In his place he was appointed, very reluctantly, inexperienced in military arts of 38 year old Alfonso Perez de Guzman, Duke of Medina Sidonia VII. Bound by the monarch he took over the army and the May 20, 1588 the Spanish Armada left Lisbon, struggling along the coast to La Coruña. Until July 21 did not abandon this port to enter, a week later, in the English Channel.
The contingent consisted of a total of 130 ships, including 60 galleons, 4 and 4 galleys galleys involving a total of 57,808 tons and 2,431 artillery pieces. In order to organize such a monstrous fleet, it was decided to divide it into squares designated by the name of the locality in which the ships were built. The crew consisted of 7,050 sailors, 2,088 rowers, 17,017 soldiers and 1,388 auxiliary among servants, religious and adventurous, total 27 543 men.
The battle with the Anglo-Dutch fleet began at the height of Calais, at this point the Spanish fleet had already had some losses due to disorganization and bad weather (storms that the fleet could not resist) , increased wear that had only just begun. The English fleet battle not formally presented it sought to follow the armed and constantly harassing her, keeping well located and monitored, which eliminated the Spanish surprise.
Although the Spanish superiority in ships and men was overwhelming, the fast and light English ships were superior in maneuverability. Heavy Spanish galleons could not avoid temporary or pursue English ships while they maneuvered around the invincible with lightness and agility.
The victorious fleet of Lepanto never won a battle to be properly presented, facing front. By contrast constant skirmishes and harassment by the English, who was undermining the status of the Spanish fleet along with inclement weather followed.
After a needed break in the French port of Calais, the fleet was replenished and try to contact unsuccessfully with the land army of the Duke of Parma, who was still far away. The funding of the fleet in Calais was made possible by the French, neutral to the conflict, were also Catholics and united them a grudge against the English.

On the night of 8 to 9 August, the Spaniards lost about 15 ships and 5,000 men because of the fire ships, the situation was untenable.
The Anglo-Dutch fleet regrouped and harassed by the invincible south steadily, as was the continued wear, added to the bad news about the army of the Duke of Parma was not ready for the invasion, Medina Sidonia, after withstand attacks for several day decided to retire to the North Sea on July 28.
